Ben & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Book is hands down the best guide I've found for making ice cream at home.
For years I've been using a Cuisinart home ice cream maker and have collected a good half dozen books on gourmet ice cream. Ben and Jerry's book is the one to own. The recipes are simple, prep and clean up are easy, and the ice cream always delicious.
